Alternate Text: By my count, only 48 of the 158 minutes in Live Free or Die Hard have action. That's pathetic, guys. Crank is better, but needs a bigger budget and more Summer Glau.

Crank kicked ass, but was in '06, and, yes, needed a bigger budget. Oh, right, and comic, pure win. I don't think we even need exposition there. And the badass Assassin from Serenity could stick around too.

I would pay at least $30 to go see 2 hours of River Tam beating down Reavers, Alliance, and just anyone in her way, using those nice blood-drenched battle-axes, spinning around in a beautifully choreographed fight sequence with lots of shots of her dancer's feet (no I don't have a foot fetish!).

Maybe I'm just in a Firefly depression... I listened to that fan-made song, Mal's Song, and now I'm feeling that emptiness of a world without any more Firefly.

I'm glad that Randall finally touched on one of the greatest loves of my life - action movies.

Off the top of my head, the must haves -

-The ridiculous fight in the first Matrix movie, right after 'I need guns'-Scene from Kill Bill in the restaurant with the yellow suit-Yoda's lightsaber battle-the Battle of Hoth

Post your favorites, and I'll try and put it together.

Die Hard 4, where he fights a jet fighter with a big rig.
Die Hard 4, where he fights a woman with an SUV.
Terminator 2, where they have a car chase in the drainage ditches.
Terminator 2, where they blow up Cyberdyne.
Terminator 2, where they fight the T-1000 in the foundry.
Bad Boys II, where they have a car chase on the freeway.
Bad Boys II, where they chase the bad guys who are in a morgue van.
Bad Boys II, where they invade Cuba.
Raiders of the Lost Ark, where Indy goes under the truck.
The Matrix Reloaded, where they have a car chase on the freeway (yes, that's two car chase sequences).

It would be fun, I'll grant you. But Joss is way too clever, and serenity way too cool, for its sequel to be wasted on one big action scene. River Tam kicking ass would be cool and all, but listening to Kaylee talk about what goes twixt her nethers is way more amusing.

I'm looking forward to the day when the SNES emulator on my computer works by emulating the elementary particles in an actual, physical box with Nintendo stamped on the side.
